Hi guys, I've come across some things on the side of the tank in the game.
I think they may possibly be spare track links, what's your opinion?

yeah that's great thanks.
The kit has spare track links included but they are just mounted near the rear fender stacked verticaly rather than leaning up against the hull like yours, shouldn't be too much trouble to chaneg the position.

Actually, they're ice cleats guys.
They would take them off and bolt them onto the tracks for extra grip.

Here's what they look like when you actually use them.

Thanks Coen, I've learnt something else today :th:

Although mine will have to make do with spare links as I have no ice cleats in the kit :?

I thought for years that they were extra... but weird tracks... I came across a book of how-to's for the T34 by Osprey and it showed them in use and POOF!... the sun came out.

Found some PE ice cleats, got them on order from Australia so they may take a while to get here.

Takes about 3 weeks for stuff to get here from NZ... I haven't ordered from Australia in a while so I can't remember... shouldn't be much longer though.
